Our Wealthy Men.

Much has been said in newspapers
OF men who have made large fortunes
in comparatively few years i'll Varl-
Gus business industries. Many OF
these articles are written by cores
pOndents of prominent newspapers,
and copied into others of lesser note.
Correspondents generally are seldom,
men Of business qualifications ana
wrongfully picture these men ana
their business as thing of accident:
this is not the case with those we
have met. We find that where men
haye made large fortunes by their
own business talent and industry
they chose with sagacity and fore
thought such business as would lead
to success when handled with bust
ness judgment. No man has been
brought before the public as an eX-
ample of success, both in wealth and
magnitude of his business Outside
of stock and railroad mem more
prominently than DR.. G. q. Green OF
Woodbury., n. J. He Is at the head
of mauy large business industries,
and yet comparatively a young man.

To lot well enough alone is unques.
tionably a good rule, but what consti.
tutes well enough is a purely relative
matter. What is well enough for one
man is far from being so for another. II
you have a comfortable home, a good
living and room to expand, together
with the respect of your neighbors, you
take chances if you move, and the prob.
abilities are that you had better heed the
maxim. If you have not these things,
if land is scarce and high, and chances
of advancement few, and employment
and wages scant, the great West offers
you many inducements, provided you
have strong arm, good supply of pluck
and fair appetite for hard work. These

pendence. In the homes of agricultural
industry want seldom peeps, while pru-
dent economy brings ultimate wealth.
In a new country, not only your own
hands, but the silent, certain advance in
the value of property Is working for you.
Many of the problems of social standing
and of material supplies, which in old
sections stare you in the face, are more
over settled for you in the court of
natural progress. Moreover, to be poor
in a new country does not shut you out
from social life of the best character, as
it does in old sections.

The Legislature which has just
closed its work has been a most
worthless one. There are many Of its
members who are too stupid and
ignorant to be of any public service
in any capacity. Others have proven
themselves to be timeserving dema-
gogues who have struggled for ap-
pearances and popularity, rather
than practical results. Those who
are intelligent and honest and who
have been laboring for the best

worked ut great disadvantage. A
few wise measures have been passed,

The young Republicans of Minnesota
have for some time contemplated an
organization and about three weeks
ago, call was made for q meeting at
the state capitol for Tuesday of last
week. 1t has been thought that an
organization of the young men of the
party would be of great benefit to the
state central committee and other Re-
publican organizations in all cam
paign work, and great things have
been expected of "the boys" when
properly united. But, alas! Although
by this organization the young men
did not intend to discard the advise
of older heads or antagonize any other
party organizations, yet the "Young
Republicans Club" was not to be.
That is, not yet. Some of the old
timers seemed to regard the move
ment with suspicion and, in order to
keep the young men under proper
subsection, concluded to squelch the
movement and succeeded in accom-
plishing their purpose. They came
into the meeting with sufficient
numbers to control things and the
young republicans" walked out of
what was supposed to be their own
meeting. An organization was COM
pleted, but it is not all organization
of young Republicans. The end,
however, is not yet. The young Re-
publicans can not be kept under the
thum os of such old hard heads as
Hicks, Braden, ct al, forever. They
will not be driven to inactivity by
having their motives miconstrued,
nor will they allow their meetings to
be entered and controlled. There will
be another call in due time for a
meeting of the young Republicans of
the state, and the old timers, who
think everything rests upon their
own shoulders, may as well conclude
to remain at home until they are
asked for. There will be no mis-deal
a second time.

To Strengthen scaffnldinr Rnnas.

1t has been suggested that, in order to
insure greater strength and consequently
more safety in ropes used for scaffolding
purposes in localities where
the atmosphere is destructive of hemp
fibre-such ropes should be dipped, when
dry, into bath containing twenty grains
of sulphate of copper per litre of water,
and kept in soak in this solution some
four days; the ropes will thus have alb
sorbed certain quantity of sulphate
of copper, which will preserve them for
some time both from the attacks of ami

mountain pass through which all must
pass to reach the new mines on the river
Yukon, has been demanding and receiv-

asked him double price for certain ser

lated he laid violent hands on him and
robbed him of all the money he had. This
